Historic Old Town has been the heart of Albuquerque since the city was founded here in 1706. Today, Old Town is the city's cultural center, with numerous museums and more than 100 shops, galleries and restaurants. Old Town’s narrow streets and century-old adobe houses are home to New Mexican eateries serving enchiladas and sopapilla pastries, and tiny artisan shops selling jewelry, rugs and pottery. Old Town Plaza is a charming spot overlooked by the 18th-century San Felipe de Neri Church. Nearby, the New Mexico Museum of Natural History and Science has dinosaur skeletons, while the Albuquerque Museum displays Southwestern art.
PLEASE NOTE BEFORE BOOKING (we like to set clear expectations to ensure that our guests have the best possible experience!)
* The Cowgirl Suite is located on the lower level of our main building, and you may experience some noise from upstairs, typical of a 2 story historic building.
* The suite is one of our largest, but the bathroom is one of our smallest (and might be a little cramped for really tall or long legged people). The shower requires a step-up that may not be ideal for elderly or disabled guests.
* The futon bed and primary bed are in the same bedroom, so if you plan to use the futon make sure you are all ok being in the same room. This property is not suitable for pets.
If you think this might not be the best fit for you, you may wish to consider one of our upstairs or standalone suites.

Summary: Overall would recommend Desert Compass to others. The suite was tidy. The location was awesome. The bed was comfortable with 2 options for pillow type. It felt secure with gate codes and door codes. However, I would caution against staying in any first floor unit or at least the Cowgirl Suite. We could hear our upstairs neighbors walking back and forth. Similar to living in a bottom floor apartment. You also won't get much sunlight and what little you can you will likely opt out of as it means opening shades to the common areas where other guests are. There are as enough lighting inside to make up for it, but I prefer natural light. The water pressure in the shower was amazing but the bathroom is painted black making a dark area darker and the shower is elevated so stepping out is a bit hazardous. There was no shower mat available either and I hated using a towel for that reason, but had a very real concern about slipping. We did not spend much time in the common areas but they looked great. Comfy lounge seats in the sunlight, hot tub, and cozy seats around a gas fireplace. Would definitely come back, but would aim for a different unit.
